FOREVER
There are no clocks
Or punch cards, in Hell;
No calendars or seasons,
Shifting sand or tolling bells.
No cock has crowed,
But I have been denied;
There’s only heart’s blood left to give,
Even though I know she lied.
This wilderness is the distance
That’s grown up, surrounding us.
My soul is splintered; honor, uprooted—
Unspent passions are still the screen between us.
I am your ascetic, wrapped in silence,
Meditating upon your love’s perfection;
But a solitary chill suspends my heart;
You are my soul’s reflection.
Outside of time, beyond reason, I remain;
Irony is the wound, in my side, that will not heal:
You’ve killed my spirit, to save my life,
Embracing my desolate doctrine of denial, with zeal.
Light cannot exist, in this space,
And never will come a dawn or thawing sun
Until your love dwells, forever, with mine:
Our souls no longer separate, but joined, as one.
*Sanlin’s Muses blow a kiss at ‘chelle, then allow their writer to trundle back off to her roost…* ;-D
